AFC North foes clash on Thursday Night Football with the Bengals hosting the Steelers. Here's how you can watch the game.
Flacco passed for 342 yards and three touchdowns, and Evan McPherson made four field goals, including the 36-yard game-winner with seven seconds to play. Bengals star wideout Ja'Marr Chase had 16 catches for 161 yards and one touchdown on a franchise record 23 targets.
Rodgers, 41, needed a less-than-average night to move up to the top-five all-time in career passing yards. He more than did enough on Thursday in southern Ohio to reach that exclusive club on a pass in the second quarter to running back Jaylen Warren.
Pittsburgh's offense parlayed the turnovers into 14 points that included Aaron Rodgers' game-winning touchdown pass to Calvin Austin III with just over two minutes left. The Steelers defense then sealed the win when backup cornerback Brandin Echols tackled DeMario Douglas for no gain on a fourth-and-1 play.
In Week 6 (Sunday at 1 p.m. ET), quarterback Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers will play the Cleveland Browns. Last time out, he went 18-for-22 for 200 yards, with one touchdown. Game Time: 1 p.m.
